I got same problem in one of my VM, both via Windows Update and stand-alone update. It pass windows updating and when rebooting it failed at stage of around 74% finished and need to revert back. Check eventlog and I notice the error message for update comes almost immediately with an error for not be able to stop "Tile Data Model Server" service. So, I disable this service and try again. This time it pass the update. Just post in case it can help.

Most failures I have seen when installing cumulative updates have been related to disk space.

The cumulative updates are rather large. If the C drive has less than 5GB of free space I would recommend cleaning it up or expanding the drive, then try again.

I ran into a similar problem after upgrading a 2012 R2 WSUS box to server 2016. I had already downloaded and ran the KB4343887 update from the Microsoft Update Catalog but the install had still failed. https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=kb4343887

After setting the "Window Internal Database" and "WSUS Server" services to manual and rebooting the box the install ran fine. I confirmed that the services were not running before launching the update.

I was seeing a WindowsUpdateClient EventID 20 in the System log on the server with an error code 0x80070643 when the update was failing.

I am not 100% convinced that my issue actually had to do with the services but you might find this information useful. Your system also likely has a different set of roles installed that might require changing the startup state of other services to manual or disabled in order to emulate the steps I have outlined here that worked for me.
